Jaykwon Walton - Expected to be available Thursday Walton (illness) is expected to be available during Wichita State's game Thursday against Tulsa, per Taylor Eldridge of The Wichita Eagle.

Impact Walton may not sit out thrice because of the illness that prevented him from participating in Wichita State's first two games of March. That is good news for the 2022-23 Shockers, as he is a crucial piece to their success who averaged 14.0 points and 5.3 rebounds during their regular season.

Gus Okafor - Eight points, seven rebounds Okafor ended with eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Sunday's 69-49 victory over South Florida.

Impact In what was expected to be Okafor's last regular season as a collegiate player, Okafor averaged 4.3 points and 4.0 rebounds across his eight games started. Now, the Shockers are scheduled to play No. 11 Tulsa, a matchup both scheduled Thursday and one that could be his last if they lose.

Isaiah Poor Bear-Chandler - Plays 16 minutes Poor Bear-Chandler finished with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 16 minutes during Sunday's 69-49 victory over South Florida.

Impact Wichita State celebrated Senior Day on Sunday, so Poor Bear-Chandler was given his first and only game started across the 2022-23 Shockers' regular season. During it, he averaged 2.2 points and 1.3 rebounds. Those and his latest minute tally, low despite the game started, should ensure fantasy managers that Poor Bear-Chandler will not be one of the Shockers' premium options during tournament-related games.
